I tried to not buy another Subaru this time. I tried really hard. Test drove BMW X5, X3, 535 GT, Mercedes ML350, E350 wagon, and looked at many other options. I was really close to pulling the trigger on a X5. Buuut I still ended up getting another Subaru: I'm really liking it so far, except for the front legroom (which will be remedied soon with a different driver's seat), and I am seriously planning on keeping this one for a while this time (famous last words). I actually like the CVT so far, and I typically hate CVT's. The shifting in manual mode in S# is quite quick. And for the Eyesight system...adaptive cruise control. Enough said
I was considering getting an XT touring if I was getting a new vehicle. Heard good things even though CVT. Congrats on your purchase!
